Iran's Coronavirus Death Toll Rises to 92

Two elderly people who died in the holy city of Qom on Wednesday were the first deaths in the Middle East and the seventh and eighth deaths caused by the virus outside mainland China.

According to a tweet by Iran’s Health Ministry Deputy, Kianush Jahanpur, seven new cases in Qom, four in capital Tehran, and two in northern Guilan province have been confirmed.

Based on this, up two now 18 cases of coronavirus have been confirmed across Iran out of which four people have died. 

The coronavirus, known as COVID-19, was first detected in the central Chinese city of Wuhan in late December. Since then, it has infected more than 75,000 people and killed more than 2,000 – the vast majority of victims in China.

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak a global health emergency.

Foreign Ministry Condemns FATF’s Blacklisting of Iran

In an interview on Friday, Mousavi said the stigma of money laundering and financing terrorism cannot be attached to Iran.

Mousavi added that the Islamic Republic of Iran has implemented all the laws and regulations related to fighting money laundering and financing of terrorism for more than two years.

“International mechanisms have advantages and disadvantages. Iran was blacklisted by the FATF despite all the efforts we made in the country and all the laws and regulations we tried to comply with.”

Unfortunately, this is also part of the politicisation of international mechanisms by the United States, Saudi Arabia and the Zionist regime. Due to their influence on these mechanisms, they are trying to influence these issues politically, underlined Mousavi.

He went on to say that Saudi Arabia as the central bank of terrorism and the Zionist regime as a government of terrorism are committing the worst crimes, and they are directing such measures against Iran using their influence.

The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) said on Friday that Iran would stay on its blacklist, and called on member states to sanction the country.

The Financial Action Task Force, a Paris-based monitoring group, had given Iran a February deadline to approve antiterrorism legislation or remain on the blacklist.

Although Iran’s parliament passed the legislation, a top body voted it down.

The blacklisting will complicate Iranian plans to sidestep American sanctions by instead doing business with European countries. France, Britain and Germany had said they would continue to do business with Iran as long as the country got itself off the FATF’s blacklist.

In a statement on Friday, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Seyyed Abbas Mousavi denounced a new round of sanctions that the US Treasury Department has imposed on the Iranian individuals, particularly on a number of members of the Guardian Council of the Iranian Constitution.
“Such measures are nothing but the failure, frustration and defeat of the US regime’s policy of maximum pressure. Those who have put more than 83 million Iranians under sanctions, economic terrorism and their maximum pressures and have achieved no results have now targeted the institution of elections in Iran in deep despair and frustration, and it shows how afraid they are of democracy and popular partnership in Iran,” the spokesman said

Mousavi further told the US officials, “The government, the nation and all pillars of the Islamic Republic of Iran do not place any value on you or on your lunatic and cowardly sanctions, and will formidably continue their path to a bright future.”

“Iran’s strategy against maximum pressure is maximum resistance, and this is the Americans who will ultimately bow to the Iranian nation’s resolve, and will learn that they must speak to and treat such glorious and resistant people with the language of respect, not the language of sanctions,” Mousavi concluded.
